When Evil Lurks trailer

After terrifying audiences with Terrified back in 2017, filmmaker Demián Rugna is back with new horror movie When Evil Lurks, and a brand new trailer gives us a closer look at the terror ahead. Check it out down below.

When Evil Lurks will first premiere at TIFF this coming September. Shudder and IFC Films will be presenting When Evil Lurks in theaters on October 6, followed by the film’s Shudder premiere on October 27.

In the film, “a pair of brothers find a mutilated corpse near their property and convene with the locals to suss it out. They soon learn that the odd happenings in their village are the cause of a spirit that’s found its way into a local man waiting for the proper protocols to rid his body of the festering demon. An escape attempt ensues as the film keeps its protagonists on edge, racing against imminent danger to shake the spirit’s relentless clutches.”

Ezequiel Rodriguez, Demián Salomon, Luis Ziembrowski, Silvia Sabater and Marcelo Michinaux star.

Director Demián Rugna said in a statement, “Working with Shudder has been an incredible and seamless experience. They allowed me the creative space to direct freely with the same goal in mind – identify new ways to shock and scare audiences with an innovative approach and a fresh story.”

As if that’s not intriguing enough, Deadline previously teased that “AMC Studios is currently looking to further expand the world of the film with a project for the small screen.” That means that the evil in Rugna’s latest may yet spill over onto TV.

“We are very excited to continue our collaboration with Shudder/IFC Films and were blown away by seeing this film from Argentina,” said Charades co-founders Pierre Mazars, Carole Baraton and Yohann Comte previously. “We can’t wait to see the reaction of the audience in Toronto.”

Shudder, Machaco Films and Aramos Cine joined forces to produce When Evil Lurks.

Take your seats. The show is about to begin. Warner Bros. brings us some new marketing for M. Night Shyamalan’s Trap this morning, including a new poster and an original song.

Saleka Shyamalan stars in the upcoming thriller as fictional pop star Lady Raven, and today brings us a first-listen preview of the song “Release” by Saleka as Lady Raven.

Give it a listen right here and find the new official poster for Trap down below.

M. Night Shyamalan’s new thriller for Warner Bros. – the sixteenth movie in his Oscar-nominated career thus far – is headed to movie theaters nationwide on August 9, 2024.

In the upcoming thriller starring Josh Hartnett, “A father and teen daughter attend a pop concert, where they realize they’re at the center of a dark and sinister event.”

As the official trailer for Trap reveals, the pop concert is actually an elaborate trap designed to catch The Butcher, a sadistic serial killer who has been evading authorities.

Hartnett had recently described the mysterious film as “very bizarre” and “very dark.”

According to IMDb, the cast for Trap also includes Hayley Mills, Marnie McPhail, Vanessa Smythe, Saleka Shyamalan, Scott Ian MacDougall, Kristi Woods, and Cali Lorella.

Trap is the first film Shyamalan has made under his new deal with Warner Bros., which has been described as a “multi-year first-look directing and producing agreement.”
